Elite Monsters

Elite Monsters are enemies which spawn periodically when killing monsters. These will have their stats based on the monsters you are fighting, having much higher HP and damage, but will also give higher EXP and more rewards than normal monsters. Elite Monsters appear in maps throughout all level ranges. The 5th, 10th, and 15th time an Elite Monster is summoned, you will face a random Elite Champion. In maps with monsters Level 140 and above, excluding Western Grandis, the 20th Elite Monster will summon an Elite Boss; maps with monsters Level 139 and below, as well as Western Grandis, will spawn Elite Champions instead.

Elite Monsters: Crimsonwood

In the Crimsonwood region, special Elite Monsters will appear instead, with fixed stats and spawning at random.

Elite Champions

Elite Champions are special enemies that spawn for the 5th, 10th, and 15th Elite Monsters (and 20th in maps with monsters Level 139 and below). They will only stay alive for 1 minute, after which they will disappear. Each of the Elite Champions has a separate gimmick required in order to defeat them.

Black Crescendo Slime

The Black Crescendo Slime has 3 forms, each bigger than the last. The second form has 3x the HP and EXP of the first form, and the third form has 2x the HP and EXP of the second form. Defeat all 3 forms to receive the reward.

Elite Bosses

The Elite Bosses are powerful beings that serve the Black Mage, evidenced in Tenebris when they try to stop the player and Orchid from venturing deeper to face the Black Mage. Some of their quotes also prove this, like the Black Knight saying "A mark of him whom I serve..." when using the chains ability, chains being a trademark Black Mage ability. Throughout Maple World, 5 Elite Bosses can be spawned and fought, with their captain only being fought in Tenebris.

In KMS, Beomgi Hong provides the Bosses' voices.
